“I consider my work as part of the life cycle of humanity, and I want this to help us care for each other,” said Dev Sangha, a junior in @fsubiology.

Nearly half of all American adults have some form of heart disease — the leading cause of death for adults annually in the U.S. 🫀

Sangha conducts research on heart health, incorporating innovation and accessibility in hopes of advancing care that can improve the lives of millions.

Sangha is part of @floridastateuniversity's Solís Laboratory, led by Christopher Solís, an assistant professor in @fsuannescollege.
